Late John Garfield Blues

INTRO: (4x) Black faces pressed against the glass Where the wind had leaned its weight Wind blown scars and top-down cars All share one western trait Sadness leaks through tear-stained cheeks * From winos to dime store jews Probably don't know they gave me These late John Garfield blues Midnight fell on Franklin St. And the lamp bulbs all was broke For the life of me I could not see But I heard a brand new joke 2 men were standing on a bridge One jumped and screamed you lose Just left the odd man holding These late John Garfield blues I'm going away to the last resort In a week or two real soon Where the fish don't bite but once a night In the moonlight of the moon The horses scream their nightmares dreams And the dead men all wear shoes 'Cause everybody's dancing These late John Garfieldfield blues
